When setting your Dinner Club price, you’re deciding how to value the experience you’re creating — the people, the vibe, and the ease of showing up for something special.
🌟 Most Communities Choose $15.99
We recommend $15.99 per guest as a great starting point.
This is the most common price across DNNR communities, offering a good balance between affordability and perceived value.
This fee covers:
Smart matching with 5 compatible members
Restaurant sourcing and reservations
Guest communication and coordination
Guests still pay for their own meals and drinks at the restaurant (we remind them to “split the tab with your new friends” or ask for separate checks).
💼 How Revenue Is Split
DNNR keeps $4.80 per ticket or 30% (whichever is greater). You keep the rest.
Example:
If you charge $15.99 → you earn $11.19 per guest
If you have 30 guests → you earn $335.70 per dinner club
Aim for 30 or more signups before your dinner. That gives our system enough variety to create well-balanced, compatible tables. When the group is too small, the matches can feel less dynamic — the magic happens when there’s a good mix of personalities to work with.
🎟️ Discounts & Minimum Price
You’re welcome to offer promo codes or discounts to help new guests join — just keep in mind that the minimum price anyone can pay is $4.80, since that covers DNNR’s base fee.
Even if you run a “free” or discounted event, the DNNR platform fee still applies and will be required for guests to book a seat.
🏙️ Adjusting for Your City or Audience
Pricing can vary by region and audience type:
Big cities (NYC, LA, Miami): $20–$25 per ticket works well
Smaller towns or local networks: $16 is most common. Please note that lower prices haven’t shown higher conversion rates
💝 Special Events & Fundraisers
For special occasions — like charity dinners, political fundraisers, or community galas — you can absolutely charge more.
A dinner club ticket could go for $100+ per ticket when guests know the proceeds support a meaningful cause such as cancer research, local nonprofits, or campaign initiatives.
Your community’s story and mission can justify higher pricing when the impact is clear.
💡 Pro Tip
Your dinner club price also signals the kind of community you’re building.
Higher pricing tends to attract more intentional, reliable guests who are excited to connect and show up.
